00-monitor.conf
# this is a config file for system to recognize WQHD monitor
# put this under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
#
# Intel Graphics's HDMI(or Single-Link DVI) can not output 2560x1440 at 60Hz,
# for its limitation of dot clock
# This file provides settings of 2560x1440 by 55Hz using "reduced blanking"
# Thanks, http://blog.keshi.org/hogememo/2013/08/27/linux-hdmi-wqhd-tips
